Answer 1

To find the approximate distance between stations B and D, I would need the coordinates of both stations. However, since I cannot see the graph you are referring to, I cannot calculate the distance directly.

The distance \( d \) between two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\) in a Cartesian coordinate system can be calculated using the distance formula:

\[
d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}
\]

If you provide the coordinates of stations B and D in the format \((x_B, y_B)\) and \((x_D, y_D)\), I can calculate the distance for you.
